Memphis Storm

I was leaving the beer line
When she bumped into me   
Had one in each hand    
Spilling Bud Light on her Def Leppard tee    
I said excuse me ma'am    
Can I buy you a beer    
She said that would be nice    
But that's not why I'm here    
As she grabbed me by the hand    
   
Now She blew me away    
Like a Memphis storm in May    
We danced in the rain    
While the band played on    
We slipped in the mud    
Sat there for a while    
I brushed her hair back    
She kissed me with that Georgia smile    
     
I was chillin' in a beach chair    
As the sun came out    
Smoke filled the air    
While she danced in that Memphis mud    
The band played their last song    
I smiled and said, how about that beer    
She said that would be nice    
But that's not why I'm here      
As she grabbed me by the hand    
     
Now She blew me away    
Like a Memphis storm in May    
Back in her room    
We washed the mud from each other    
The water wasn't the only thing hot that night    
We made love and held each other for a while    
Then I brushed her hair back    
She kissed me goodnight with that Georgia smile    
     
We were sitting by the fountain      
As those ducks came in      
I could see it in her eye      
So I said goodbye      
She leaned in and whispered      
That's not why I'm here      
She let go of my hand, gave me that Georgia smile      
She said don’t worry, I’ll be back next year      
As I watched her walk away...      
All I could think about...    
How she...    
     
She blew me away      
Like a Memphis storm in May      
We danced in the rain      
While the band played on      
We slipped in the mud      
Sat there for awhile      
Then I brushed her hair back      
She kissed me with that Georgia smile
